New CC Video + Click on the ad at the end to help CC!

Updated November 02, 2006 @ 14:37 PST

So, Creative Commons launched the new animation (which I debuted in Toronto and at the Berkeley Museum presentations I gave last week).

Thus, I’m connecting up with the sneakmove post and Linksvayer’s post (which I finally looked up what gondwana is…)

This is an attempt to see how viral marketing can work for CC, since Revver.com is donating all proceeds to the nonprofit, Creative Commons, rather than taking 50%.

Mike writes good, so I’m wholesale quoting him and giving him credit here:

has begun its annual fall fundraiser. Donate if you can or buy a t-shirt in support of your favorite licensethe public domain.

If you’re completely clueless about restrictive copyright and the net, you’re probably in the wrong place. Before you scurry off, watch Get Creative, which introduced Creative Commons nearly four years ago and provides some of the background story.

Otherwise, check out the brand new Wanna Work Together?, which explains Creative Commons more succinctly and features music by , who has the awesomest home page ever.

is forgoing its usual fifty percent take on ad clickthroughs for these videos through the end of the year (there’s a static ad at the end of each video).

Please contribute and spread these videos to help ensure a future with plenty of freedom lunches for all.

I currently work for Creative Commons, but heed this blog’s current tagline: My opinions only. I do not represent any organization in this publication.

UPDATE: Please help digg this.

  1. That ‘revver’ seems to be flash 8 only, then it can’t be see on Linux, that’s sad for a cc creation…

  2. Yeah, that is no good. I hate flash. I hate flash player. And, I hate developing for flash. Go SVG NOW!
